Year of the Snake 2013 Horoscope

The transformation that began during 2012 will enter into a pronounced phase during 2013. The foundations in various aspects of life will change and familiarity will depart from us. 2013 will be all about changes, adjustments and even destruction in order for renewal and new beginnings to take place both physically as well as figuratively. This will be an exciting year for those who embrace changes but might be traumatizing for those who prefer the status quo or are too caught up in their own world. Domestic matters will take precedence with people taking up more responsibilities or making adjustments to their domestic lives. Concurrently, the great majority will be aggressively pursuing their beliefs that will further widen the gap pertaining to social status, material matters and mental development. Humanitarian activities will increase but there will be some that might be fighting to be excluded. This year will mark an important milestone for those who build a strong foundation to leap forward towards greater success. However those who make continuous wrong moves would fail badly. The frequency and magnitude of natural calamities will increase in 2013 compared to 2012. Freak accidents, manmade incidents such as suicides, scandals, robberies and other bizarre events will continue to rise. Despite such turbulence, this will still be a favorable year for marriage, new relationships or even starting a family. It will also be a good year to do renovations or moving into a new house. While there will be high likelihood of falling in love and strengthening relationships, infidelity and unhealthy relationships will also be commonplace. This year will form a test of character. Embrace such changes and do the right thing.

In 2012 natural calamities have made history in several parts of the world with the high amounts of rainfall and destructive storms in some countries, scorching heat in others, and heavy snow blizzards in yet others causing extensive damage and great loss of life. Unfortunately, these are only a sneak preview of 2013 where the magnitude and frequency of such natural calamities will continue to increase tremendously. There will be more extreme weather conditions accompanied with frequent earthquakes, land shifts, volcanic eruptions and other related catastrophes leading to greater devastation and loss of life. As the destruction and potential danger will be far greater, it will be vital to obtain the latest local weather report if you are living in area that is prone to natural disasters. If you will be traveling, it will be best to keep abreast of the weather and geological environment of the destination that you will be visiting to avoid danger.

As Mother Nature displays her destructive anger across the world, people will be behaving much more erratic than usual. There will be a strong desire to break free, assume a leadership role and accept more responsibilities. At the same time, domestic life and community will be the main focus during 2013 with many people seeking to achieve harmony or improvement in such areas. A sense of belonging to a community or a specific geographical area will be amplified and there will be a great deal of angst against foreigners or people from other communities such as different races, clans, religions, beliefs or social status. This will be a good time to commit to community service or engage in activities for the betterment of specific groups of people. Domestic and community will extend to families, neighborhoods, countries or geographical regions. Countries might be inclined to improve domestic productivity and growth through increasing exports while reducing imports in order to protect local companies and employment. This will also be an opportune time for governments and institutions to adopt plans that will align themselves with the general development in order for improvements to take place. There will also be more people engaging in humanitarian activities such as helping the needy, saving the earth and the deprived. Holistic activities that include meditation, alternative healing, rearranging and improving one’s living environment will be on the increase. There will also be greater focus on healthy lifestyles to achieve better physical and mental health. The arts, music or other fields that relate to beauty will flourish during this year. Concurrently, extremists of various kinds might also rise to promote racial hatred, religious and community strife. There will continue to be institutions attempting to squeeze money out from people to satisfy their greed, to compensate for bad investments or for poor wealth management that will attract the attention of whistle blowers and actions of vigilantes.

With the same purpose of focusing on the domestic and community, people will generally be inclined towards two very different approaches that definitely will have very different and drastic impacts. One group of people will have a great tendency of being opinionated and overly idealistic about what is right and wrong. They might be very domineering and attempt to impose their ideas and views on others by forcing others to adjust or compromise to suit their own needs. This group of people might seem to be living in their own world. Not only will they fail to respect others, they will also have difficulty communicating with others. Over time this will give rise to tyrants, nasty bosses, incapable leaders in the corporate world as well as in politics. There will be an increasing number of such individuals who will have difficulty in performing simple tasks such as coordinating or communicating effectively with others. It will depend on the extent of authority and influence such a person has. If he or she happens to be very charismatic, the individual will be able to convert masses of people to follow an extreme ideology. This might possibly lead to the beginning of a world war or mass violence or its equivalent that will be devastating. The greater and stronger the individual is, the more fatal the fall will be as they might pull down others and cause greater damage. If the individuals do not hold much authority or power, they will create strong resentment towards themselves. Apart from attracting negative karmic energies, they will also be likely to miss opportunities, make consecutive wrong decisions and even reject those who help them progress in life. They will be likely to be left behind in their self-destructive and self-denial mode.

The other group of people will develop finer vibrations that will enable them to be more sensitive to their physical environment and people around them. Emotions such as empathy and compassion will be heightened. This will not stop at an emotional level but also provide them with opportunities to strive to be devoted to family and community by being a humanitarian. They will take up responsibilities, duties and be successful in helping and guiding others to work towards the betterment of mankind. Where a person works in an environment that has severe office politics or the job does not encompass helping people, one might resort to make a sudden career change that involves helping or guiding others. Being a humanitarian does not mean the person has to be poor or be unable to achieve financial independence. Material success will come along with it during this year. You will be successful if you work from a position of great responsibility and trust and inspire the people you serve. If this person has great authority and power and will be able to influence more people to do what is good and right for society, this will not only bring about harmony and happiness, it will also improve the economy and gain material success for more people.

In spite of the many drastic changes or even destruction during this year, this will be a favorable year to strengthen relationships, fall in love, start a family, renovate or move house. This will be a time to focus on your personal life and your closer community. How long have you been charging forward and forgotten those who have been supporting and trusting in you? Often, we have the tendency to take those close to us for granted. This will be a year to improve your relationships with them. However, such a favorable year for relationships and family will be filled with traps and challenges because there will be many distractions or seduction that might increase the likelihood of infidelity and divorce. Hence, there will be a make or break in terms of relationship matters. Do not succumb to temporal fun by forgoing long-term happiness. Do not allow your conscience and sanity to be blinded in the name of lust.

2013 will be a year that embraces change. It will offer an opportunity for us to remove baggage and things that no longer serve us. At the same time, our values and personality will be put to the test. “Doing unto others as you would have them do unto you” to give comfort and service to others whether it is done in the home or out in the community. Your success will depend on how much you can do for others. Your return will come through your service to love and protect others. The general principle of this year will be that the more you give back, the more good you will get in return. The more you want to take the greater the retaliation or damage to you will occur. Build our future on love and harmony.

Rat

General

This will be a much better year than 2012. This will be a year that you might make great advances in different areas of your life such as your career, wealth and happiness simultaneously. Your quality of life will improve and you will be feeling great and confident. There will be clarity in the direction you might take and many reasons for you to be successful. However, this in itself will not guarantee success. Do not get complacent and take things for granted because the dangers this year will strike quickly and unexpectedly. Hence, you might be bold and make ambitious plans in 2013 but also have contingency plans in place and avoid taking unnecessary risks. If you are not careful, your downfall might be the equivalent of falling from here to hell in a split second. Make the best out of this year by working hard and staying out of trouble.

Career

You will do very well in your career during this year. You will receive strong support from management, figures of authority and all relevant business associates. The support will not be limited to paying you lip service and giving you a pat on your shoulders. This year, there will be recognition, promotions, salary increments and awards. People will be willing to cooperate with you and will see you as a rising star. This will be a great year to implement your career plans and take your career to greater heights. You will glide into success easily because things will be favorable and your performance will be impressive. By putting in a little more effort these good results will be amplified. You might work towards career advancement and business expansion during this year. Notwithstanding your confidence, you will need to have contingency plans in place as there will be many sudden crises that might strike and knock your plans off-course. They might even result in your plans falling apart. This sudden and unexpected crisis will not be those caused by others but will instead include natural disasters, power disruptions or social unrest. As you will be flying high, you might want to ensure you have a parachute with you.

Wealth

You will be likely to improve your financial standing during this year because it will be easier for you to earn much more money than usual. However, it will be easier and quicker for you to earn through a stable and secure source. Although your wealth luck will be strong, your investment and gambling luck will be erratic. You might enjoy large winnings one moment and incur heavy losses the next, that will either allow you to break even or even lose money. Investing in smaller amounts or adopting a more conservative approach to your finances, will allow you to earn more over time.

Relationship

If you are single, you will attract many interested parties. Unfortunately, you will attract both genuine people as well as people who will only want to take advantage of you. This will definitely be a good time to expand your social circle and have more friends. However you will need to be selective when it comes to getting into personal relationships. If you are already in a relationship, this will be a good year for you to improve on your relationship. There will be many people trying to lead you into extramarital affairs or short term flings. Such people will usually be attracted to your success will and likely want to obtain some advantage from you. Do not submit to these temptations, as you will have too much to lose. Focus on your relationship and refuse all indecent propositions.

Health

The health problems that you will be prone to have will be those that strike fast and suddenly. They might also be contributed to by the lavish lifestyle that you are likely to enjoy during the Snake year. There will be overeating, over-drinking and over-exertion that might lead to heart attacks and strokes. There will also be indications of being accident-prone relating to drunk-driving or reckless driving. You will be able to enjoy this year without having to compromise on your health and safety by maintaining a balanced diet, routine exercise and adequate rest. If you drink, ensure you take public transport, get someone to drive you and do not operate machinery. Maintaining good health and remaining safe will prolong this wonderful year and be a critical foundation for you to excel further.

People

People issues during this year will be minimal because you will be doing very well that others will prefer to be seen as standing by you and avoiding any direct conflicts with you. This year will be easier for you to make friends than foes. However this will not imply that everybody will agree with you or even like you. You might also want to remind yourself not to get too carried away and to be sensitive to others and show them respect. There will be many problems that might strike quickly and unexpectedly. Having more friends will be the equivalent of having a safety net to prevent your fall. If you allow your achievements and popularity to get the better of you, others will be likely to get back at you once you lose your shine by giving you a push when any sudden crisis befalls you.

Ox

General

This might be a worse year than 2012. There will be a great deal of trouble in many different areas of your life. Most of them will involve serious conflicts in your relationships that will affect your personal life and career progression. These challenges will fuel your two main enemies. The first will be a strong sense of inadequate support from others. The other will be subconsciously getting into a self-sabotaging and pessimistic mode. This will cause you to be moody and potentially reject opportunities and those who will be able to help you. Your steep expenses during this year will result in your finances falling drastically. Furthermore, your health will be weaker and there will also be the possibility of death within the family. You might feel as if a dark cloud is hovering over you. As such, it will be best to maintain the status quo or adopt a conservative approach to matters. Notwithstanding the difficulties you will encounter, you will need to keep an open mind and be friendly towards others. Try to achieve your inner peace and allow flexibility so as to attract opportunities and people who might be able to support you and minimize your potential problems thereby keeping you afloat.

Career

On the career front, you will be going against the odds. This will not be a good year to implement ambitious plans or expand your business. You will be better off remaining on familiar grounds and adopting tried-and-tested approaches. Even when carrying out plans or tasks that you are familiar with, you might want to have details worked out and not make any assumptions. There will be serious betrayals and back-stabbings and others will provide misleading information and refuse to cooperate with you. The support from your colleagues and management will be weak and you will have to rely on yourself to get things done. You might also have the tendency to isolate yourself and fall into a state of self-pity that will affect your judgment and your ability to manage matters. To help you pull through this year, you might consider avoiding sharing confidential and sensitive information with others yet still maintaining cordial relations. Stay away from gossip corners and do not complain or argue with your colleagues in order to avoid being perceived as being difficult and not being a team player. Be receptive to those who might be able to support you and let others determine your worth. Even if they will not sing your praises, at least they will not make things too difficult for you.

Wealth

Your wealth will range from below average to poor. If you are earning through a fixed and steady income, you will be likely to do fine. However if you earn through commissions, sales or investments, your earnings might be poor. The main culprit for your falling wealth will be your inability to earn enough to keep up with your high expenses. Furthermore you will be very likely to resort to shopping therapy to feel better, but this might only worsen your financial predicament and lead to other more serious problems. It will be vital for you to limit your expenditure and prioritize your spending.

Relationship

Affairs of the heart might be tough this year. If single, you might feel lonely and display a depressing aura that might deter potential suitors. It will be most important for you to feel balanced and contented before embarking on a healthy relationship, as a relationship will be unable to fill any existing void. Try to work on being a happy person instead of rushing into a relationship. If you are seeing someone or are married, there will be much bickering. Even though you might be with someone, you might still feel the love to be inadequate or the person might not be able to express his or her feelings for you, as you want it to be. Your partner has not changed but somehow you will have difficulty in understanding your partner’s love. Getting into disputes will only place more strain on your relationship. Try to remain patient and understanding. Your spouse’s or partners’ health and safety might be in danger and your partner will also need a lot of your support during this year.

Health

Your health will be slightly below average and might feel lethargic. Many of the health issues that you will be prone to have during this year will be related to your lungs, respiratory system and skin allergies. These might be worse when a person feels helpless, is under great stress and unhappy. Apart from physical health conditions, your mental state might be weaker than average and you will tend to be pessimistic and might get into a spiral of depression. This will further lead to self-sabotaging thoughts and behavior. Although it will not be easy when dealing with your emotions, you must try your best to remain positive and not dwell on negative thoughts or thinking too much. You might do so by encouraging yourself from time to time and surrounding yourself with positive people.

People

There will be severe people issues with betrayals and back-stabbings. Many people will try to get you into trouble by misleading you, falsely accusing you or being uncooperative. Even if you want to stay out of trouble with others somehow gossip will come looking for you. To make things worse, you will be in a heavy mood and might view everything and everybody from a gloomy perspective. You might isolate yourself or pour out your grief to everyone you meet. Either way, your behavior will provide sadistic and ill-intentioned people with great satisfaction and also drive away those who might want to help you. Even though the support from others might be weak this year, you will help yourself by snapping out of your self-pity. Be clear and precise in your communications with others and avoid gossip corners. Try to control your mood swings and be receptive to those who might want to help you.

Tiger

General

The Snake year will be an average year for you because the obstacles you encounter will be manageable. However, people issues relating to misunderstandings, gossip, false accusations and possibly being implicated in legal problems will drag you down resulting in much frustration. The impact will be extensive and might affect various areas of your life such as your career, wealth, relationship and even your health. Your patience and temper will also be challenged. What will hurt the most is that those who want to harm to you will be those close to you. The situation will be so severe that it might result in you blowing your top or resorting to violence. Notwithstanding your annoyance, never allow your anger to cloud your judgement. Acting impulsively will only lead you to fall into the trap of others by worsening your predicament. Remaining calm will enable you to find better and effective ways to manage those with ill intentions. Furthermore, the support that you might receive from others will be insignificant. However, being blessed with a lucky star this year will allow you to get out of trouble and eventually change the situation in your favor. Count your blessings and avoid pushing your luck too much. Be brave and tread carefully this year.

Career

There will be a great deal of instability on the work front. Most of these issues will relate to misunderstandings, misinterpretations or communication problems. These will extend to people trying to implicate you or get you into trouble with the law, corporate policies and company procedures. Although you will still receive support from management and the relevant people, you will still need to adopt certain practices in order to protect yourself. Be clear and precise in your communications and follow up with matters diligently. Keep documentation securely and ensure that all important matters are in writing. When handling any contractual matters, ensure you are clear with the terms and conditions before committing to anything and seek professional help if you are unsure. Adhere to all policies and procedures closely and avoid sharing confidential information with others, especially if it involves opportunities. There will be sabotaging of your plans or intercepting of your opportunities and it will likely be by your trusted colleagues whom you think of as friends. During the Snake year, the nature of the job will be manageable but others will make things very difficult for you. The situation will lead to much frustration and you will be likely to retaliate through direct confrontations or outbursts of anger. Calm yourself down and avoid reacting impulsively because it will place you in a bad light or get you into more serious troubles. Thinking carefully and rationally will provide you with smart and effective solutions. The best part of this year will be that luck will favor you allowing you most likely to get out of troubles unscathed.

Wealth

Your main wealth stream will be unstable but your earnings will be average. Whether you are able to keep your savings will be heavily dependent on you avoiding legal problems, being cheated or incurring other forms of unexpected expenditure. Your side wealth will be much better than your main wealth and it will be likely to allow you to achieve greater earnings through investments or gambling related activities.

Relationship

Being aware of many difficult people around you might lead you to be defensive and overly sensitive. Hence if you are single, relationship matters might not be your top priority. You might be skeptical when interested parties express their feelings for you. True love will have difficulty reaching you through the tall and thick defensive wall you have built around yourself. Although you will need to be careful, avoid shutting everybody out of your life. If you are seeing someone or are married, you might be overly suspicious and confrontational. It will be best to maintain open communication channels. However, you might need to lessen the hostility by not allowing your communication to become like an interrogation. If you are unable to trust your partner notwithstanding what your partner says and does, it will probably indicate that there is something seriously wrong with your relationship. Thus you will have to make a decision about your relationship before it drives you into becoming a worse person.

Health

Your health will be average and the potential health problems that you might suffer from will be those that relate to you having high blood pressure. Remind yourself to control your temper and avoid getting into drastic mood swings. If you have a great deal of frustration built up within you, you might try to channel it through exercise or participating in activities that you enjoy. Although it is well known that carbohydrates might be happy food, avoid stuffing yourself silly because overeating will lead to other health problems.

People

There will be a great deal of betrayals, back-stabbings and false accusations. Many people will be trying to cheat, sabotage, implicate you or get you into trouble. People will attempt to cause harm to you behind your back while direct confrontations will be minimal. However those that try to harm you will be family or those whom you think of as friends. The support you might get from others will be weak but not entirely non-existent. Be careful but avoid becoming paranoid or offensive. Be clear and precise when communicating and avoid sharing confidential and sensitive information with others. Keep from sharing personal opinions to avoid them being used against you to place you in a bad light. When it comes to important information or matters pertaining to investments, you might want to gather critical information yourself instead of relying on others. Most importantly, avoid legal problems or the possibility of violating company policies or procedures. If you are unsure, seek professional help. You will not be a pushover and will be able to handle matters head on this year. There will even be a strong likelihood of you being unable to control your anger leading to the use of force that might result in you committing a criminal offense. Instead of violence, use your wits instead as it will be more effective.

Rabbit

General

This Snake year will be a good time for learning and planning. Although this year might seem to be fine, the undercurrents will be strong. While you will be able to gain support from people easily, equally there will be a high risk of being cheated, blackmailed and taken advantage of by others. There will be the possibility of being verbally and physically attacked. There will also be signs of legal problems with even the risk of receiving a custodial sentence. People who will be likely to harm you will be those who are close to you or those you think of as friends. If you have been slipshod in your tasks, are selfish and inconsiderate, the backlash will be severe during this year. However if you carry out your tasks diligently while maintaining strong and genuine relationships, you will be able to avoid the above-mentioned problems and will be fine. There might also be bad news regarding your family and relatives that might be life threatening. You will also run the risk of being attacked by animals.

Career

You will have many advantages in your career during this year in having better focus and more support from others. Hence, this will be an appropriate time for learning and planning. People will generally be cooperative and friendly towards you. However, you will have the inclination to get carried away and careless in your judgment and work. This will make you an easy target of being cheated and misled by people easily. You might also get yourself into serious trouble by trusting the wrong people. They might make a mess of your tasks or run away with the money that you have entrusted with them. There will also be the likelihood of getting into legal problems that might range from small misdemeanors, the violation of company policies, lawsuits and even criminal offences. If you get caught up in such problems, the consequences might include monetary penalties and even the possibility of a custodial sentence. This year, people will not hesitate to lash out at you when there are disagreements which could lead to verbal and even physical attacks. Thus, you might want to be very careful in whom you might trust, whom you deal with and prioritizing your tasks. For important matters, you will need to dedicate effort and time on them personally. Ensure important instructions and agreements are in writing. Be clear and precise in your communications. If there are disagreements, you will need to gather your facts and figures before engaging in discussions.

Wealth

Your wealth luck will be rather weak with you having difficulty saving money and high expenses potentially draining out your savings. If you are in business or work in a sales capacity, this could be a challenging year. Generally, you will be likely to lose money, be cheated or spend a lot of money to get yourself out of trouble. This will not be a good year to make impulsive financial decisions. Investment plans that sound too good to be true, most likely are. You will need to be prepared to do research if you want to engage in investments or procurement. You will likely be overcharged or short-changed. Although you will be alert, you will also be slipshod when verifying or going through the details. There will be people who might abscond with money you have entrusted them. You might need to incur expenses for bail, engaging lawyers and being blackmailed. As such, staying away from trouble will help you save money.

Relationship

If you are single, you will likely meet many suitors. However, you will need to be very careful in identifying the right person for you. You will be just as likely to meet the love of your life as well as kissing toads. There will be sincere and genuine people as well as those trying to take advantage of your money, blackmail you or getting you into an abusive relationship. You will need to be very honest and realistic with yourself about the type of relationship that you will want to get into. If you are in a relationship, there will be a strong likelihood of a lot of tension. Your partner might find you indifferent, self-centered or unreasonable. You will have a strong tendency of belittling your partner or ignoring your partners’ feelings. Although you will not need to be obliging there should still be mutual respect and care between each other. Let your partner understand what you are going through and help work out your differences together. Establish whether the tension is a temporary phase or only the tip of the iceberg. Being abusive might cause either one of you to walk out of the relationship abruptly or get entangled in a long and painful emotional and mental torture.

Health

Your immune system will be weak during this year. There will not be life-threatening situations but there might be the possibility of falling ill easily or for longer periods. As such you might want to improve your immune system. There will also be the strong likelihood of being attacked by animals. If you have pets at home or work in an environment that has animals, be very careful when handling them. Avoid going to places where you might encounter stray animals. Furthermore, there might be some very bad news from family and relatives that might involve life threatening situations or even death.

People

While you will be able to obtain support generally, there will be many instances of cheating, blackmailing and being verbally or physically assaulted. You will need to be selective in whom you might trust and be diligent when handling important matters. It seems that you will be likely to be harmed by someone close to you like your good friends, close colleagues or even family. This will be a vital year that will show your ability in managing relationships with others. If you offend or reject those who might help you or surround yourself with insincere people, there will be a high likelihood that you will find yourself in a rut during this year. On the other hand, if you have been maintaining sincere friends or relationships, this will be tremendously helpful during this year. They will be able to pull you out of trouble or help you to circumvent problems. The serious aspect of this year will be the likelihood of facing legal penalties that might range from traffic fines to both civil and criminal court cases. The court cases might see you facing lawsuits or even facing prosecution. However, the worst outcome will be the risk of receiving a custodial sentence.

Dragon

General

You will do very well during the Snake year. However as you might have gone through a great deal last year, you might be feeling depressed and will prefer to have more personal space. Even though you will be showered with love and support, you might still feel emotionally detached. You will want to pull yourself together and make the best of this great year. You will be propelled to greater heights in various areas of your life such as your career, wealth and relationship. Although you might not want to socialize, you will not need to kick everyone out of your life. You might take it slow and maintain a friendly distance with everybody. There will be many celebratory events during this year that might include career advancements, marriage or welcoming a new member to the family. Leave the doom and gloom mood behind and indulge in this joyous and wonderful Snake year.

Career

This will be a great year for career advancement, business expansion and the implementation of your career plans. You will likely receive positive news regarding opportunities, recognition and good deals. Your popularity will soar and you will attract support like a magnet. Although you will be showered with support and good news, you might still feel unhappy, burnt out or indifferent. This will likely be caused by the trauma you experienced during 2012. You might have seen the cruelty of others when you were down and the speed they changed positions to suit the situation. You will likely rise in your position at work but might alienate yourself from others by preferring to keep to yourself. You might also need to re-ignite your passion for your work and not allow others to affect your attitude nor reduce your job satisfaction and of being rewarded. It will be advantageous to focus on building rapport, networking and engaging in interactive activities such as presentations and negotiations. You will be able to clinch very good business deals. Although you might not need to be close to your business associates and colleagues or share your personal opinions or sensitive information with them, you might still need to maintain a healthy and friendly distance from them. With their support you will make huge strides during this year, as there will be few obstacles and problems. Make the best out of this year.

Wealth

You will have high potential of achieving salary increments that will enable you to improve your financial status tremendously. If you earn through commissions, sales or business, you will be able to earn even more money from these areas. You will be highly persuasive and clients will be likely to accept whatever recommendations presented to them. Most of the expenses incurred this year will be related to decorations, makeovers, entertainment and medical expenses. Since your wealth luck will be very strong, these expenses will only have an insignificant impact on your finances.

Relationship

If you are single, there will be the appearance of many admirers during this year. However, you will feel that they love you more than you love them or you will have difficulty in committing to a relationship. Some of you might prefer not to be in a relationship at all while others might try it out but will behave indifferently that might result in your partner to feel discouraged. This indifference will be a passing phase and unlikely to be caused by the partner you have committed yourself to. It will be strongly related to you being emotionally and mentally burnt out. However you will not need to deprive yourself of a relationship during this year. If you are seeing someone or are in a marriage, you might appear to be cold towards your partner. You might let your partner know that there is nothing wrong with your relationship and you are feeling physically and emotionally drained. If you are married, there will be the celebration of welcoming new family member.

Health

Your health will be weak and you might be ill easily and more frequently. Although there will not be life-threatening situations, your health condition might cause you to feel lethargic, moody or even keep away from people more than usual. This will deprive you from progressing as fast as you might during this year. Improve your immune system and remain healthy. Your emotions and mental health will be worse than your physical health and you might find yourself feeling depressed. Try to maintain positive thoughts and surround yourself with positive people. If you are female and are in a relationship, there will be the likelihood of conceiving or giving birth this year.

People

The people problems during this year will be few. It will be unlikely that anybody will want to do anything that will harm, betray or inconvenience you. People will love and support you and will want to be involved in whatever you might be doing. Although you will not be ready to welcome them with extended arms, you might want to avoid distancing yourself from others. As you will make great progress during this year, their support will form a critical factor as to the extent of your success. You will not need to share everything with them, but only maintain a cordial relationship and let them feel that they are part of your life.

Snake

General

This will be a roller coaster year with many ups and downs. When all seems to be well, you might suddenly find yourself struck by a meteorite the next moment. Your mood swings will be drastic and you might get very emotional, unhappy and restless. Instead of dealing with betrayals and back-stabbings, you might have to handle direct and intense conflicts with others. Being emotional and impulsive will place you into a more vulnerable position. Although you might feel wronged, try to avoid direct conflicts with others. The support that you might get from others will be weak but not non-existent. You will be better of adopting slow and measured approach during this Snake year. Try not to be too hard on yourself and treat this year as a vacation. There will be signs of being accident-prone and undergoing surgeries. As such, you might want to focus on your health and safety. The comfort that you will have will be that you will be blessed with a Neutralizer Star that will help you to minimize the impact of such devastating matters. Even so, it will be best to maintain a low profile during this Snake year.

Career

This will be a very erratic year when your career is concerned. When all seems to be right, problems and crisis will strike suddenly from nowhere.
